Browser compatability issue with fonts

Hi,
I love this plugin, but I have some issues that I am trying to resolve on my own, and I’m having difficulty.

I have the plugin installed on two different WordPress sites using the Weaver II theme.

My problem is with the font. I want the post excerpts to display using the Arial font.

The plugin works perfectly on one site in all browsers, but on the other site, the font only shows the post excerpts with the Arial font using Internet Explorer 9. I have changed the CSS to use the Arial font, but it will only do so in Internet Explorer. In all other browsers, it displays a default font which looks similar to the courier font, which I’d rather not have.

I added the following statement to the CSS, but it doesn’t seem to work.

/* The post excerpt. */
p.srp-widget-excerpt {
margin: 0px !important;
font-family: Arial !important;
font-size: 1em !important;
}

My default font on my WordPress theme is Arial. Here is how I changed my CSS:

The change in the CSS is not reflected in the website. I do not see the Arial font in the post excerpt in any browser other than Internet Explorer.

I used version 1.9.7., but I copied back the previous version because I didn’t like how my thumbnails looked in the newer version.

Could you please tell me how to resolve this? Do you need a link to the website?

Thank you.
